So, the bit of the documentation you were presumably looking at
continues to point you at the right option.

             These rewriting rules are not applied to the envelope. You can
change the return path using return_path, but you cannot change envelope
recipients at this time.

So use "return_path = new-return-path-string-expansion" on the Transport.
